PrintINGREDIENTS
- 1 large bunch swiss chard (stems and leaves roughly chopped)
- 2 medium onions, thinly sliced
- 2 cans petite diced or diced tomatoes
- minced garlic (to taste)
- salt and pepper
- red pepper flakes
- 1 box whole wheat spaghetti, cooked while preparing sauce
- olive oil
- Toppings:
- 4 tablespoons toasted pine nuts
- 1/2 cup coarsely chopped kalamata olives
DIRECTIONS
In a very large skillet (I use a wok), heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and saute onions for about 10-15 minutes until browned and carmelized.
Add in chard, salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Saute for about 3-5 minutes, until chard has wilted. Add in garlic and red pepper flakes, and saute for 1 minute.
Pour in the two cans of tomatoes, with juice, and stir. bring the mixture up to a simmer, and cook for about 5 minutes, until everything is heated through, and tomato juice has thickened slightly.
Add the drained pasta to the skillet, and combone the sauce with the pasta.
Pour the whole mixture into a serving bowl and top with the olives and pine nuts.
Notes:
This dish looks really beautiful, with the red and green sauce and the bright purple olives and toasted pine nuts on top.
It's also delicious as leftovers, cold or reheated.
